this is slightly off-topic, but while Wiggins is a mediocre defender in other areas, he's incredible good (probably one of the best five wings) at closing out on shooters and truly contesting a shot

The average person has around 60,000 thoughts per day. Which of these thoughts are turned to action is a byproduct of our tendencies when having internal dialogue on what to do. Collectively, we can surmise, 54% more of Barton's thoughts are given to passion, persistence, and a desire to prove himself. That translates into over 32,000 more “personal pep talks” than the average NBA player, based on measurable data. Clearly a boon for staying prepared, this competitive mentality also carries over when on-court as well. If you estimate the average NBA game to last about two hours, that's 2,700 more self-affirmations in the face of adversity than the average player – enough to make Stuart Smalley proud. ^the worst thing i've ever read

Psychology is and always has been an impartial, data-driven hard science which certainly doesn't have a long and gross history as an ethically questionable discipline with a ready-made capacity for abuse and social control as an arbitrarily self-declared authority deciding what constitutes the correct human reaction to environmental stressors and it's ignorant of you to question the validity of such well-intentioned numbers

The entire situation for Simmons was not ideal. That reflects poorly on his decision making I suppose, but he wasn't put into a pro-style system where he was getting the ball in his hands every possession. Easy to blame player, but that's on coaching too...which seemed pretty awful from a man-management and x and o's perspective.

Bender looks good for a player his age but is still 2+ years away from where Porzingis was when he came to the league imo

I would rather have Murray, Dunn, and maybe Hield than Bender right now. Bender has the tools to be a great player in the NBA, but it remains to be seen if he'll ever realize them. His performance (or lack there of) this season has really tanked his value imo. Not an immediate NBA rotation player like Jokic or Porzingis

Givony like 'taking a stand on this' makes me really respect him a lot less. Since Draftexpress is so influential among people who don't really know what they're talking about (and a lot of people who do), he's really soured the narrative on Simmons. He makes Cowherd seem like the rational one in the interview on this page. http://www.draftexpress.com/profile/Ben-Simmons-61928/

Simmons would literally be amazing on the Wolves. We're obsessed with outside shooting right now because the Warriors are winning the title with two of the greatest ten shooters in NBA history, but there will be other paths. With Simmons and Rubio, you'd have two of the top 5 feel guys at their position (Simmons comes into the NBA and slots in behind Lebron, Draymond, and Blake as the best PF passer in the NBA) and Simmons makes things so much easier for his teammates. There's a knock on Simmons that he needs the ball in his hands to be effective or whatever, and I guess that's true, but he was an unbelievable passer out of the post in college and was fantastic in transition. When I see him, I see a skinnier, weaker, taller, and much more skilled version of Draymond Green when he came out of the draft. The way that he moves his feet on defense and offense and is constantly pressuring the defense with the ball in his hands makes up for a lack of elite spacing imo. Wolves would be lucky to have him. straight up brolic fucked around with this message at 19:33 on Apr 13, 2016 |

well Zach, we haven't been given enough information about the relative value of the bat and the ball to ascertain which one costs more. However, we do know that one of the items costs $1.05 and the other costs 5 cents. Is this a plastic bat? What material is the ball made out of?
